We've got quite a few Injury Watch's this week so let's get right to them! The first takes us to Boston where Red Sox pitcher Clay Buchholz is dealing with a sore neck. His bullpen session scheduled for Sunday has been scratched as has his next scheduled start on Tuesday at home against Tampa. It's also appearing more and more likely that Buchholz will find himself on the DL sooner or later. Despite his great season, play it safe this week and keep Buchholz on the bench.

In the two-hole is the Orioles' Jason Hammel. Hammel isn't exactly injured, but just really sick. He was seen leaving the ballpark before Friday's game, but is expected to rejoin the team on Sunday. However, that doesn't necessarily mean he'll make his next start. In fact, it seems just about anything is possible. Hammel could make his next start Monday at Detroit, have that start pushed back a day or more or simply have it skipped altogether. With that uncertainty surrounding his next outing, Hammel is best left on the bench this week

.Our third Injury Watch comes to us from our friends up north where the Blue Jays' Josh Johnson has been dealing with a blister on the middle finger of his pitching hand since a start on June 9. The blister has forced Toronto to push back his next scheduled start from Saturday to Sunday, and then again from Sunday to Monday. Johnson is tentatively scheduled to start Monday at home against the Rockies. I wouldn't risk using him though. The blister could flare up at any time, and frankly Johnson wasn't pitching well before the injury anyway. Keep this guy on your bench too.

And finally, our last Injury Watch takes to the Big Apple where Mets' starting pitcher Dillon Gee has been dealing with flexor tendinitis, apparently since spring training. Despite the lingering injury, Gee has actually pitched really well in his last 3 starts. This one is really a judgment call. Much like Johnson, there's just too much risk involved with a pitcher that has an injury that could linger and/or affect his two-start status, so I wouldn't use him. However, if you're desperate or perhaps in a deep league, you might consider rolling the dice with Gee, but for those of you in standard leagues, stay away.

Good luck to your fantasy teams! Now, on to what we all came here for, the Two-Start Pitchers!
